1622 Monstrous Fire (2)
Jing Ye told Chu Yunzheng not to pay too much attention to the things on the other side of the granary when he was on duty tonight, if there was really any movement over there, he could go and take a look, but he didn't need to keep an eye on that side.
He didn't quite understand why Jing Ye had such an order, there was no abnormality in Beijing at that time, the only thing that could be regarded as abnormal was that Jing Ye was not in Beijing, and then the envoy from the Northern Desert entered Beijing.
He had some understanding of Jing Ye's actions, and knew that there were other things involved, so he chose to ignore it after thinking about it carefully.
It's just that when he saw the fire in the sky at this time, he felt that Jing Ye seemed to be playing a little big.
If he remembered correctly, there was a lot of grain and grass there, and it was a pity that a fire burned at this time, but when he looked closer at the fire, the corners of his mouth twitched.
He has been fighting for many years, and he has used fire battles a few times, so he usually knows how much can be burned in it by looking at the fire, and this fire seems to be a little fierce at first glance, but the place in the middle is empty!
His uncle, where is there as rumored by the outside world to accumulate a lot of grain and grass, inside is simply half empty, although there is some grain and grass, the quantity is definitely not much, Jing Ye has hidden it from the world!
Chu Yunzheng felt a little strange about the amount of rice grain harvested in the summer, because under normal circumstances, it is impossible to have so much rice grain, but he also heard about the bumper harvest in the southern counties this year, and then heard the news released by Jing Ye that it was bought with the money of the family in the Gu Mansion before, and he felt that this matter was reasonable.
Looking at the capital, no one has Gu Mansion money, and it is rumored that Daye's annual taxes may not be as much as Gu Mansion's money, he was not in the capital when Gu Mansion **** was at home, and he did not see the grand occasion with his own eyes, but after he returned to Beijing, he often heard people talk about Gu Mansion, saying that the court used hundreds of carriages to pull all the gold and silver of Gu Mansion at that time.
Chu Yunzheng knew that no matter how rich the Gu Mansion was, it was not as exaggerated as the world had rumored, but it was true that there was a lot of silver in the Gu Mansion, so everyone said that it was the rice grain that Jing Ye bought with the money of the Gu Mansion, but he was not too surprised.
It's just that now it seems that it's just Jing Ye's trick.
Chu Yunzheng shook his head gently, in his opinion, Jing Ye's behavior is not like what a regent should be, but he doesn't know what a regent should look like, looking at history, except for a regent in the previous dynasty, there is no other regent, and that regent acts very viciously, and no one is allowed to say that he doesn't say a word, and although Jing Ye is also domineering, but thinking about the things he handles, he is ruthless when he should be ruthless, and merciful when he should be merciful.
Although Chu Yunzheng didn't agree with Jing Ye's actions today, he still admired it in his heart.
He sat on horseback, turned his head to the group of Jingjiwei and said, "Fight the fire!" ”
The guards behind him were already stunned when they saw the fire in the sky, and followed him to the granary, although they thought of fighting the fire, but in the face of such a monstrous fire, they felt that no matter how they saved it, they couldn't save it, so they all stood there and didn't move.
